We Are All Shot Through With Enough

The Most Remarkable Discovery Ever Made By Scientists Is Science Itself. The Discovery Must Be Compared In Importance With The Invention Of Cave-painting And Of Writing.

We Gain Our Ends Only With The Laws Of Nature; We Control Her Only By Understanding Her Laws.

The World Can Only Be Grasped By Action, Not By Contemplation.

The Discoveries Of Science, The Works Of Art Are Explorations - More, Are Explosions, Of A Hidden Likeness. The Discoverer Or Artist Presents In Them Two Aspects Of Nature And Fuses Them Into One. This Is The Act Of Creation, In Which An Original Thought Is Born, And It Is The Same Act In Original Science And Original Art.

Astronomy Is Not The Apex Of Science Or Of Invention. But It Is A Test Of The Cast Of Temperament And Mind That Underlies A Culture.
